    Best place to live

    Spain is not expensive though. That place is vacation heaven. I would consider expatriating there. I'll back up some of the SLO comments as well. I have a good friend who lives in Paso Robles (about 30 miles north of SLO) and I love visiting the area. As said, the beach towns there aren't...

    They blow the case wide open in the first season. The whole conspiracy unravels and is being reported on TV at the end.

    Best place to live

    Don't consider San Jose. It fails the culture. Unless you really enjoy Asian cuisine.

    FOH Custom 16 Team League - YEAR SE7EN!

    Guys like Brady, Rodgers, and Luck are not going to be traded by the guys that own them and even if they were the price would be even higher for them.

    NOLA, Nashville, or ?

    Nashville is great and I would suggest visiting to anyone who even slightly gives a shit about music.

    So Los Angeles sucks

    Downtown LA is lame. It's getting better, but it's still lame. My favorite communities are probably the beach communities, but I've had a lot of fun in Silver Lake.

    FOH Custom 16 Team League - YEAR SE7EN!

    I'm fully aware this is a bad move for my team this year, but the team I inherited two years ago wasn't very good and it's not any better now. Every year I don't have three players that are keeper-worthy and that can set you back so much. If you don't draft whatever sleeper pick or hot shot...

    The first major trade of the season occurs. Sorry everyone for giving ham so many early picks. My team is going through an Astros/Cubs period right now.

    Yeah, I found the draft recap as well. ESPN has such a horrible interface. I don't get their obsession with size 8 font.

    FOH Custom 16 Team League - YEAR SE7EN!

    Is there a way to view the draft history from last year? I'm trying to gauge the importance of picks in various rounds before I commit to trading away my good picks for worthwhile keepers. Ham - did you just take back your trade proposal?

    Fantasy Football: 2015 Advice Thread

    This year is going to be interesting. Who's going to be the #1 pick? Lynch? Charles? This might be the first year when the top three picks aren't going to be RBs. I see Julio Jones and Antonio Brown getting picked pretty early. I honestly think I might draft Jeremy Hill earlier than...

    That 5 for 5 deals were so good. Even as they got slightly worse over time. It was still a helluva deal.

    I don't have a problem with Burress being there. They made a point to mention how well they knew the underground tunnels and how multiple people had eyes on the situation. Probably had eyes on possible exits and stuff. The shootout makes more sense now too. Itislikely Dixon and the Mexican...

    FOH Custom 16 Team League - YEAR SE7EN!

    None of my players are worth a shit beyond Lynch and he's probably off the table. I really need to focus on getting keeper-worthy players. My next best player after Lynch is honestly probably Michael Floyd. It's really bad. I'm willing to sacrifice depth for a year.

    Bluetooth speakers?

    I would be extremely concerned about the audio quality of a $10 bluetooth speaker. Seems like it would sound only slightly better than just using your phone. I have aJBL Chargeand it's great. A lot of volume with no breakup. Excellent bass response. Only bluetooth speaker I've used that's...

    That game was horrible. The worst Bengals game I've seen in the Dalton-Green era. At least we got our sweet sweet revenge in Cleveland in Manziel's debut.
